Nanocellulose: From Fundamentals to Advanced Applications (2020, background): “ANC with enhanced properties such as high accessibility, improved sorption, and higher functional group amount can be primarily used as thickening agent in aqueous systems and carriers for bioactive substances (Kargarzadeh et al., 2017; Ram and Chauhan, 2018).”
A critical review of cellulose-based nanomaterials for water purification in industrial processes (2018, background): “It was found by Rathod et al. (2015) that a very commonly found antibiotic, TC, can be adsorbed from water by sulfated CNCs with a maximum uptake of around 7 mg/g at pH 5 following a pseudo-second order kinetic model as the chemisorption controls the adsorption rate.”
